the if i also, most of us would say of course i loved nice who was not, but often that's not enough. hello and welcome. i'm sorry we got the body and the all watching equal. yeah. to me, i really love nature is not enough. because many all specifies all around us out on the text. and if need to actually, we must protect. and the key to doing this is finish the most and why plots level friends struggling with drawing the plans that they want, especially in the city. so 1st of all, because they don't really know much about loans or find me. and so i can live because the internet ends up giving them some genetic advice. but if an experienced farm, i want to help them with the gardens. wouldn't that make a lot of difference shorter towards what when and these big cities can one find

somebody with such a specific skill set and knowledge? well as a value to base stock job that is trying to bring together the traditional knowledge and skills of farming. with of and gardening to me has lived and worked as a gardener in bengal noodle for 10 years. but he's always in a lease from a village to taking all mentors of the red heat. and the generations beforehand will find was on that online. and then what happened was i bought a boat rentals, right, and we became dependent on range to grow electronics. the rest of my family is do loops on the phone, but i moved here to earn a bit or leave it in the way that a friend introduced him to a social enterprise called open. molly, which means a wind guard. no, it aims to bridge the gap between out of will commerce and a need in cities full of people with intimate knowledge of nature. one of his regular 9th leaving on the feed as a dental area in the north of the big news. my profession as a new charge uh fix

a lot from me. uh, working long dollars, etc. but i couldn't then to the small garden that i had, but i wanted somebody to somebody to take care of for it to make sure that it was, it was fine. and the billing had been any time i wanted to, i could go and get my fish for us from the gods and remain scares for the plans and gardens as if they will his own my plans feel like they have been alive. hey leanne kicking, i'm and so think that's the key, right? i think i can safely say that i've never, i've never seen a dead plant. i've never seen a sick blog and i've always and it's, it's always fresh. it's always good. and then on his head, when molly keeps its health and environmental impact and minimal, for example, the only use natural ingredients and therefore the lives of

the let me sit in the city garden and so we don't give me this when you use the grid argument for the laser, because you will remember that and bunch ago that gave me call that we used to use on the farm. weird things i would say that i would get blisters on my skin and they even caused us tomorrow. you know, are gardens. we basically use do i'm going to the thought everything i'm visit there was fruit, and a lot of that on the, on the 4th avenue. now, what do you want me to send to just the open. molly's gardeners have help set up and indeed around 1000 gardens at own bank a little. it's not been entirely smooth. often they've had to challenge perceptions about what the gardens are look like. residents tend to prioritize as pet dates of a health and the environment. flashy exotics load out over native species. when molly's founder is b a heading the drive to popularize native gardens. if you're

looking at grandmother's stain and the garden said they used to it all, native they see what a piece of plants they will, plans that are used for the coffin. gold at a fever or something that makes a delicious still say, but these are the plans that are used to the payment or the environment that they don't if you're in water, these plans for 3 days. they've still know how to prove and, and so right. so then a defense that can easily be grown in your own garden. not, of course, to see everybody's favorite in such an auspicious plan. i dream is another plant. very good folk often goes again in the flat incense. hibiscus is, is one. if i need to read id, but things have changed in 2018, a. so be off more than a $1000.00 fees was conducted along agreed in from bank a little city center. goods not infringes. it found that over half of the $93.00 species, drawing that out exhausted, many of the plans that were brought in. but how do you guys have your purposes?

what was it going to be in these of flats inmates of plans, of plans that grow? so when and spread so much in this new environment that they start eating out all the need to florida. that's a problem because this new of soda objects, the butterflies, the birds, the bees that native to this, this habitat, that these in music, not the growing the foundation for the revitalization. often oakland has traditions is an organization that seems to revive the use of native medicine. the lines one, the knob visits. it's most of the often to select good ideas for her customers. she can learn a lot from watching this denise lab who, who has been working here for 20 years. this is a very unique. i'm the mother this week. so leaves no, we can call it as a waiter to banyon 3. wow. so this has actually gone to the literally to yes. okay . when we go to products. uh some things and the products are to be not good for

auto, solely. we be looking for these goals. so it would be lu seats. me think this is actually google. ginger smith, the bible call is this a function, is god in a place where people can learn about how esthetics and ecology can work together. one not takes the concepts back to open money and on the gardens. they tend to use the thing. and i'm in gardening gloves, we are like doctors and the work comes easy to me. the work hours are good and i really like my work in the city. i have loved in factories and company use. i feel i wasted so many years and art in solar to most i wouldn't now i work hard. i am able to support my family live, but a some rental for me a little when i went and went up the is the lease i needed it.

finding drops osama was affected by a changing climate. it's a just we forward and a win win for reuben migrants as well as the communities a launching a wall of please seems like rather than bushes idea, but then cause a green was initiative in africa as china have been trying to create a more zack of lindsey to come back. desert just in case you can in the i do the sample stop. the advance of the saw does look, which is often the source of for assistant simon dust storms. i'm watching the hot winds, the videos like these are popping up for the social media. they show colossal dust storms raging through delhi and the surrounding states that this isn't a freak weather event. the storms are becoming seasonal to death. comes from the thought. doesn't like the sahara and the gobi is expanding and destroying vital

living space. i forgot and china i've responded with, i'm fishes prompting projects. great green pools of trees to try and stopped as though to vacation. and india. india is lucky. the north has a natural green bar at the arrival of mountain range, which is held back to thought as it for centuries. that is, until now, the mecca dust storms and hot winds blowing in from the desert, reckoning the lives of millions in the national capital region. in 2019 india made a promising announcement. it will be prompting its own quite greenville when they arrive, at least to help fight design to vacation. but as we're about to see, was of trees have shown mixed results in other parts of 12. and the roughly mountain range is facing some serious threat to that side. so what can india do better? and will it be able to slow the advancing? does that the powerful does students have led to a spike and bronchitis, breeding difficulties and lung disease. they also destroy soil and damage crumbs,

but this is not just the fault of climate change. direct human actions such as the legal mining, deforestation, and of and screw eating with the mountain barrier. and turbo, charging does education in the why to region. the mining is happening to us such a big extent that he loved in units being raised to the ground. there are millions and millions of people living in york without the use of the desert is going to completely engulf entire or northwest in, you know, but north india is construction boom demands building materials and lots of them. india, super in court funds mining in the release in 2002, 2009 on 2018. but the destruction of this ancient mountain range continues at an alarming rate of 2018 governments study estimates that at least 20 percent of the arrival of hills and broadest on double, ready been lost to mining important ground water systems have been disrupted,

and many rivers have disappeared altogether, the remedies h and for us to also in trouble. scientists calculated that since 1975 over 1000 square kilometers of trees have been cut down and replaced with housing and farm land, and taking into account illegal deforestation. my $6000.00 square economics has a tree call that has been lost. and that's the equivalent of more than 3 180000. cricket bitches. in 2019 after season of especially punishing dust storms. the government proposed solution. in this ministry of environment, forest and climate change would create a great green gold. 1400 kilometers long and 5 kilometers wide to restore 1500000 hectares of degraded land and the revenue region and stopped the expansion of the thought as it would run through the states of good rot. raw just on arianna and delhi was just building a great green will actually mean the concept was made famous by the african union

in 2007 as a way to collectively re green the saw. how does it region and create livelihoods for the people living that the original tree will project started off stretching from senegal in the west to booty in the east, pulsing through starting different countries. but of course, the progress across the continental is being sparsely distributed. you know, some countries have done much, much more than other countries, and it's not just the idea of planting trees because you know, it could go out and boundaries. but what's really important is justin and believe you, how do you ensure that these things route to maturity? so we have to be creative about the type of trees that are planted, you know, and make sure that there's some sort of irrigation. altering the trees, proved a tough challenge, but important lessons will on to results suggest that the most successful recreating on the continent has actually been achieved, like thomas planting trees alongside the crops and countries like me,

sharon malawi, one of the things that i would advise any country embarking on on these the project to ensure that the people, the communities are part of based, right from the, from the get go and the participate and have a clear understanding of what is the benefit of these project will be to them because this is going to be the incentive event of any work towards the success of the project as well. ok, is great. greenville is aiming to restore 100000000 hectares of degraded land by 2030 but sized fault. well, i'm to hosted the restoration target has been achieved. the un estimates that the project still needs about $33000000.00 of investment to complete it. the question is, the, would that be money? well spent great green malls around the world, and particularly the ones in hawaii in west africa, algeria. ready ready and china that have recently been reviewed in depth, do not have a good track record at all. but here's the desert,

application desiccation drying. things like this are happening. they're happening primarily because of global climate change patterns. and the idea that you know, trees are going to stop a desert advancing simply doesn't, doesn't hold water. trying to start it's prompting. it's great greenville known as the 3 north shelter about project 44 years ago. since then, the government has spent billions on tree planting. the plan is to plant an area or forest, colorado as big as bronson italy combined by 2050. so there's still a lot to do. but can china is large scale, planting power, set it apart? china is, is quite different from these other cases. and the primary difference is just the way china is governed and the way the chinese government gets things done. so come, india is government, get that great greenville done. the initiative was officially launched in march

2023, but since then, no prompting is yet being done to the ministry of environment. forest and climate change says it's still preparing the state by state plan and identifying vulnerable hotspots. no one from the ministry agreed to be interviewed. local communities have responded to this government in action by experimenting with the own replanting strategies. we decided that we're going to plant or be newkirk species because in exports on high re, uh, we reached out to exports to you about what it needs to take on. and that obviously flores, i'm the guys 1st project transformed an old mining site into what is now the roughly biodiversity pock. ready the teen collected seeds from the rally for us to recreate hundreds of native plants and trees species. the planting projects also made use of indigenous war to capture techniques to support the plants. they were generated in old good, and that's an environment and ditch structure i used to channel to during the

monsoon range. and they also cleaned out. several jo had small palms that helped to recharge ground water. very, very clear that no water from our projects, big long and be those fine grease of taking water from the road or bid it would be good to get except what the into the into our project. so kind a great greenville helped to restore. india is a roughly mountains. well, probably not the way things are going. the government doesn't actually take steps to protect that and actually one from minding from real estate development from commercial activities. then are these kind of teams on knoxville ye uh, you know, they're just going to be cosmetic, with communities, taking the lead on localize, replanting the responsibilities now and the indian government to make good on it's great greenville promise enforcing legal protections in the arrival. these would be

a good start. increasing the extreme relative and select slabs and droughts have made weight synonymous with for security of the water in ukraine also had it sort of clean it. however, several regions of the world are currently facing a severe read green shortage which can well be activated to climate change. for example, food losses can reach up to 84 percent in the case of a sylvia drought. but what happens if the with green becomes, isn't in store these specters? the answer can be found in the climate too much of a research facility in munich. cut this delicate little tongue help fight food shortages. the wheat and this climate chamber is still an e 7 centimeters high, but in just 10 weeks time, the special variety will be ready for harvesting up to 6 times a year. and it's in the system in the end. so don't do that scrolling well. it's

already flowered, as you can see here, the guns, including the fuel masters to the green bio mass time the what's left behind is the grain in the years of the couldn't. i'm the c l we can provide long periods of daylight to boost wrote the missing kind. we don't have to set the special times or it's cooler or warmer who to is spent. the night we can cultivate the plant at a steady temperature of say, $23.00 degrees in daylight, lasting $1820.00 or even 22 hours on the side. of course that allows for a harvest with a high yield to inside the team from the chair of digital agriculture, the technical university of munich, which is also funding the project control and test various key factors such as light, temperature, nutrient supply. and most importantly, wolfe to they mainly use that we use

a nutrient mix job. so the worst that can be recycled, as well as a layer of horses that doesn't evaporate. this means that was that consumption is up to 95 percent lower than in agriculture. in recent years also has proved to be the most unpredictable factor in agricultural production. in germany, weak production remains relatively steady. but around the world, it's in decline. droughts and floods are taking a severe toll. the bavarian town of n sync looks is d like as ever. but fama, bam hobbs high melva had to contend with several spells of heavy rain this summer. ones that if his harvest has been damaged, he can now only sell it as animal feed. so dispatch as the same variety is bad fat,

but there is no way it can be used for bread. so boiling either way, just when the weight was ready for thrashing and reins at originally new minutes, i decided not to thrash it while it was, was because of the dry and costs. and the more instead i decided to wait until the right out foot on the rain for 10 or 12 days. there was so much precipitation and don't go over that. and then part of the harvest was damaged and there was practically no more quality weak laboratory. this item isn't the it's, i have was fixed, but it was extreme this year is it went from one extreme very rainy. i came to the very dry was then raining again was how is extreme this year? sure. full is extreme. come with a zone growing weight and those could be viable not in the in regions affected by dr. so flooding, but also in germany to reduce the negative impacts of agricultural production on the environment. and it's up to the full time. it has many advantage as

a water requirement is extremely low and we have no negative impact on the environment on biodiversity, that's alonzo. so we don't need crop protection. we can control nutrients in a very targeted way. one 3rd, we do have high energy inside as well. as the technical set up, which has a c o 2 footprint as highs as things stand, it will be rush to present this to the world is a solution, but it's a building block. and this is one element in the food production process to pull it up to one. there's a ready interest from countries like single pole, egypt and the united arab emirates for reasons ranging from lack of space to water shortages, weak garden and goals is a promising option. over the years, i have covered several stories about pharma scro deals being listed often it starts with the move in the production of a search and cross usability approach, artifacts to it, which is followed by a drumstick drop in the market demand. and then the foremost just for us to either

throw the 14th on the streets or just select a truck. but why? because they do not have access to affordable core storage. and is that for deals is not immediately source. then it is good for nothing, but the knowledge of a group of scientists seems. i mean i do can help save all of this field use. ready we will know that fruit can run within one or 2 days, but this white sashay could change that, and solver, lots of food, waste problems that come with it. and the problems are huge. according to a 2021, un report, household food waste and india is estimated to amount to around 50 kilos capacities a year. almost $17000000.00 tons in total. unconcealed food increases waste management problems and accounts for up to 10 percent of worldwide comp and emissions. indian angry biotech company green port labs. busy says it can extend

the lifespan of fruits and vegetables by simply adding sunchase to the transport box. a solution inspired by nature, simple to fulton, that's when a fruitful vegetable is kept at room temperature. that there's more than 3 times the chance of spoilage when compared to cold storage compared to that makes the lots of preferable. in one sense, a lot of it goes to the cold storage is an expensive infrastructure that includes high capital and operational costs. so the fulton does the disadvantage of cold storage operations, the cost of good. so a lot of the now all of our products look well in temperatures from 10 degrees to 45 or 50 degrees. 45 degrees, 50 degrees. so the sasha can actually replace cold storage on the cold storage costs up lessons. we please point i'm going into these small sashes, slow down the fruits ripening process. by harnessing natural plant, extracts,

dental or branding is generally old. pump some trees have their own defense mechanisms to fight to infections with regard to the now we have the strategy in our product to follow tile compounds and to split defense mechanism, and help to prolong show fly by 2 more days may induce plenty. so that's actually not true extension bundle or they've gone out of your pocket. so really not sure. the company has embrace to you and sustainable development goals of drastically reducing food waste by 2030. a lot of damage happens during transport. the green plug labs is done in experiments with freshly harvest grapes. this is what they look like of the 10 days at 32 degrees celsius. some are already bad and this is a sample with a company such chase we used able to for when transporting fruit and vegetables at the center space. economic loss on 2 levels.

one on the 1st, the sportage drive of say they carry a 100 kilos around 20 kilos, a spoiled or input, and then the i t t, those can be solved will be this is one type of why search on the input. secondly, already lost even the remaining a decay those to terry i didn't quantity and therefore lose value. so the seller would only get a to a monte repairs and instead of a 100 to bring it into myself, both these problems with green part, it reduces the overall percentage of fruit and vegetable spoiled from 20 percent to one percent or under the company on the end, it brings financial benefit to our customers, customers, but the value so to can you avoid wasting suit as a consumer by purchasing only as much as you really need for excel and sharing or distributing any food that you and your family con, teach among friends, co work as a neighbors. ready oh, by giving it to the meetings by doing

a thing left of a food to food banks the, the knowledge is the only key via traditional or scientific that helps us to adapt . and so live in december changing was but you let me know how to do like today's episodes and what sort of stories would you like to see more of? you can email us or write to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then take care. good bye. so as gosh, the
